    Anyone been able to retain BSM and RCTA with an aftermarket rear bumper?

    I was going to purchase an ADD Stealth rear bumper but I don’t want to lose the BSM/RCTA features.

    Any bumpers designed to retain those features?

    it's really rare to find a bumper to retain BSM. I think the only bumper I looked at so far that can retain BSM would be the Pelfrey built rear bumper because of the cutouts on the sides for the BSM. Most of the bumpers out now only have the circular holes for the proximity sensors.

    the ICI Magnum rear bumper is the only one that I am aware of that works with BSM due to cutouts on the side of the bumper and plastic covers.

    I guess Pelfrey doesn’t exist any more right?

    Does anyone know if the ICI Magnum rear bumper for a 2018 Tundra Crewmax will work if the Truck has BSM? If so which bumper works?

    What would happen if you installed a bumper without the BSM and RCTA sensors? Could you just tuck the sensors underneath somewhere and call it a day? Would it effect the rest of the system or cause anything else to malfunction? I never use these functions, so wouldn't miss them, but wouldn't want a bunch of warning chimes and lights because of it.
